Does The Trailer Valet JXC Jack Have a Triangle Or Round Mounting Plate?

Published 01/08/2022

Question:

Part #TV54FR has some photos with a triangular shaped mounting plate and some of the photos are a round mounting plate which is it? Also, you describe this as a sidewind trailer tongue jack, but several of the photos show it mounted as a front wind, which is what I would like to have. Is the frontwind a separate unit that you no longer offer? or is the sidewind also a frontwind unit? Please clarify. Thank you.

The Trailer Valet JXC Trailer Jack w/ Footplate and Drill Powered Option # TV54FR had just switched to using the round mounting plate over the triangular mounting plate. We have updated our pictures to match the new product but there are a couple images that are from our customer reviews that will still show the triangle plate.

The circular mount allows you to place the handle in multiple positions as the sidewind is in reference to the crank handle being mounted on the side of the jack tube and not the top like a topwind. So you will be able to place the handle so that it faces the front of the trailer coupler and not facing the side of the trailer.
